The modules are all loaded:
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
video1394              14208   0
ohci1394               19944   0  [video1394]
raw1394                18488   0

So obviously, I would use avc.
But nevertheless, how am I supposed to configure it in gnomemeeting?
I only get a combobox, where I can choose between /dev/video0 and

Shall I just rename the node or make a new one (mknod)?
